Friday afternoon found us speeding along the Pacific Coast Highway, windows down and music playing. Alexander looked relaxed behind the wheel, one hand resting casually on the steering wheel, the other occasionally reaching over to squeeze my knee.
“So, are you going to tell me more about this Malibu house?” I asked, watching the ocean glitter alongside the highway.
“And ruin the surprise? Not a chance.” He grinned, sunglasses hiding his eyes. “Just trust me.”
“The last time you said ‘trust me,‘ I ended up zip–lining across a canyon in the island.”
“And wasn’t it exhilarating?”
“Terrifying is the word I’d use.”
Alexander’s phone buzzed with an incoming call. He glanced at the display before silencing it. “Work can wait until Monday.”
“Look at you, ignoring calls. Who are you and what have you done with my workaholic husband?”
“I’m evolving,” he said with mock seriousness. “Becoming a more balanced individual.”
“Uh–huh.” I wasn’t convinced. “Let’s see how long that lasts.”
“At least until Monday morning,” he promised. “This weekend is just for us.”
The Malibu house, as Alexander had modestly called it, turned out to be a stunning oceanfront villa perched on the cliffs above a private beach. Modern architecture blended seamlessly with the natural landscape, floor- to–ceiling windows capturing breathtaking views of the Pacific.
“This is incredible,” I breathed as we stepped into the expansive living room. The space opened onto an infinity pool that seemed to merge with the ocean beyond.
“Glad you approve,” Alexander said, looking pleased with himself. “Wait until you see the master suite.”
